Cu-Ag/SBA-15 nano catalysts for the control of microorganisms in water.

Because of their uniform and regular channels, adjustable pore size, large surface area, controllable wall composition, high hydrothermal stability, ease of functional modification, and good accessibility of larger reactant molecules, mesoporous siliceous SBA-15 is of excellent catalyst carrier that is highly versatile and has been used extensively to prepare a variety of supported catalysts with ideal catalytic properties. In this study, we report the synthesis, characterization, and catalytic application of Cu-Ag/ SBA-15 nanoalloy catalysts towards the control of microorganisms in drinking water has been reported. The Cu-Ag/SBA-15 nanoalloy catalysts with different molar mass ratio of copper to silver (Cu:Ag = 1: 0, 0.

Artificial intelligence in gastrointestinal cancers: Diagnostic, prognostic, and surgical strategies.

GI (Gastrointestinal) malignancies are one of the most common and lethal cancers globally. The dawn of precision medicine and developing technologies have reduced the mortality rates for GI malignancies, underscoring the main role of early detection methods for survival rate improvement. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a new technology that may improve GI cancer screening, treatment, and therapeutic efficiency for better patient care.

Real-Time 2D Phase-Contrast MRI to Assess Cardiac- and Respiratory-Driven CSF Movement in Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus.

Background And Purpose: In idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) patients, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow is typically evaluated with a cardiac-gated two-dimensional (2D) phase-contrast (PC) MRI through the cerebral aqueduct. This approach is limited by the evaluation of a single location and does not account for respiration effects on flow. In this study, we quantified the cardiac and respiratory contributions to CSF movement at multiple intracranial locations using a real-time 2D PC-MRI and evaluated the diagnostic value of CSF dynamics biomarkers in classifying iNPH patients.

An Unusual Incident of "Cannot Ventilate" Situation Due to a Broken Soda Lime Canister: A Case Report.

The circle breathing system enables rebreathing using a carbon dioxide absorbent. This case report presents a rare incident of ventilation failure in a 30-year-old male patient due to a broken unidirectional valve in a soda lime canister. Despite the anesthesia machine passing automated checks, a mechanical blockage from caked soda lime in the inner inspiratory chamber led to insufficient tidal volume delivery.
